These chocolate-coated marzipan bars are a exceptional treat for anyone with a taste for high-quality almond marzipan. Available in four different flavors, these bars also make a great gift. Marzipan originated in the Orient and made its way to Europe during the Crusades. Luebeck, a port city on the Baltic Sea in northern Germany, became the capital of marzipan production in Germany. It is now over 200 years, that Niederegger has been producing world-famous marzipan delicacies. The quality of marzipan is judged by the amount of sugar in the product. Niederegger uses 100% marzipan paste, with no added sugar. A secret ingredient similar to rose water is added to the marzipan paste to give the Niederegger marzipan a note of distinction.

I would have given this product six stars if I could. I had the bittersweet variety, and it was delicious. I had it delivered to my workplace, and I had the WHOLE bar eaten before the day was over. There was none to take home! This is definitely something I'll be buying again.
